That's a tough one. You can look for RV salvage yards, but that is a long shot. Some auto body folks might be able to rebuild the fiberglass. Good luck!

What they expect you to scrape vehicle because of few thousand dollars worth of damage because they can’t find or refbricate parts?

They're (the dealers) probably concerned about the never ending, unfolding of deeply embedded damage that will be uncovered when removing the rear cap. I could see that turning into a nightmare and being very expensive. It's probably much more that an R&R situation.

Without knowing exactly why you need to replace the cap…have you considered having a good fiberglass shop repair the one you have? If it can’t be repaired properly I would expect they could overlay it in an effective and attractive way. Sounds like you’re taking on an ambitious project. Good luck.
